It felt more like an audiobook than a Visual Novel to me. Visual Novels at least work off of minor bits of motion feedback and expressiveness to combine with the wording, but all expression in DE is through the deep-voiced narrator. For long stretches, the only visual component is the dreary surroundings of your detective.
That’s very enjoyable to some, but I played for several hours and couldn’t really remember laughing at any jokes or enjoying any interactions.
